You might be right that it's best for that, but CoreData pre-dates table views by many years and has always been sold by Apple as a general store for object graphs.

When did you perform that verification? I know they started out by hosting storage chunks on AWS and Azure in 2011, but they have massively increased their own data center capacity since then. Have you reverified recently?

You are the one who made the claim without providing any numbers. I do not believe you can support this bluster with facts.

So phones are a big and a small part of Samsung simultaneously? Right.

Unfortunately I have not found such a thing, probably because human knowledge about this is so patchy.

How is Samsung not 'one big breakthrough by Apple' from having its revenues cut by 90%?

PC sales have only stopped declining because of the Mac. If you take that out of the equation, the PC is still dropping.

My mother in law and wife are both desperate to upgrade their iPads, which are an original model, and a non-retina iPad mini. We may well buy 2 new iPads over the next 10 months. The point being that there is an upgrade cycle that is more

I think the key point is that you now have developed this reflective process by which you consider your emotions and beliefs. Expect it to continue to get richer!

No, because in my experience emotions are not clear and concise. They are a very complex and nuanced way of generating relatively rapid responses to our environment based on our genetics and our experience. Our experiences are complex, t

I didn't find this model particularly compelling compared to the many that have been developed in the psychological and therapeutic literature, or in the esoteric spiritual traditions. However what I think is valuable, and is what

The problem with telling people to run this for themselves, is now they have to trust both you and apple . If you really want to educate people, why not also provide directions on how to do it via the UI? Are you trying to scare people?

Because the response reveals the innuendo. There is no need to credit it with some kind of point by point analysis.

So, the title, as well as being innuendo, is false - it's not 'by design' it is 'by default', and only for search terms. I think it's fair enough to point out that these search terms are transmitted to Apple.

Ok - so just an arbitrary old machine you picked. Somehow I thought there was more logic to the choice of benchmark that I was missing.

The points raised by the parent don't need to be addressed because they are just innuendo.

It might be difficult for you, but it's very clear to me. But if all you are doing is text editing, you may be right about the value. On the other hand if you are doing 4K video editing or designing mobile apps, this is a great tool.

I agree that two are worse than one, but only if that one is big enough - 27" or above.

I think the opposite is true. iOS7/8 was a giant transition that was staged over two releases. I suspect the next few years will be much less major reworking and much more tuning up and adding capabilities.

Given that only a tiny percentage of iOS users jailbreak, this just means that your game is only being bought by a very small percentage of users.

This certainly doesn't follow. The bar to creating and distributing a paid app outside the store is far higher than creating an app for the store, so it selects for serious businesses like omni, or panic. Many of the apps in the store

Yosemite takes some getting used to. I had the same initial reaction - that the Linux desktops were comparable. However after a few months of using it as my daily OS, I find it far cleaner and more productive than prior OSX versions.

I think the 30% is a red herring. We aren't talking about 15% revenue difference being somehow transformative to the profitability of app development. I disagree strongly that people who would use upgrades already do so, but badly. P

All of those things make the average price of software go up. I realize that's desirable to developers (me included), but it would also tilt the overall market towards platforms where software is cheaper.

So you chose to ignore the 'not putting them at a disadvantage' point. Repeating the points from the linked article is not a contribution.
